The discussion above has always fascinated me. One question I would like to be enlightened on is the following. Could Christianity exist without the murder of Christ? Am I correct to assume God gave his Son to save mankind? If this is the case someone had to "do the job". Whoever "did the job" should be thanked, not cursed for the next 2000 years because Christianity could not exist without the crucifixion of Jesus. Whether it was the Romans or the Jews is irrelevant.
